Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you want to know about Indigo.

What does it take to become a member of Indigo?

To become a member, we want you to:

  • Attend volunteer orientation.
  • Attend the majority of regularly scheduled meetings – eight per year.
  • Complete 10 volunteer hours yearly outside of meetings and events.
  • Make a personal contribution to Coburn Place. We suggest a monthly donation. This can be just $5 a month – any amount adds to the whole!
Do I need special training to volunteer with Indigo?

The only thing that we ask is you take part in volunteer orientation so that you can learn about Coburn Place and how to work with the residents.

When does Indigo meet?

Indigo meets once a month on the second Wednesday of the month from 6 to 7 p.m. Due to COVID, we are meeting virtually, but we typically meet in person.

What kind of events does Indigo host throughout the year?

Indigo hosts several events including:

  • Spiked Lemonade Stand – A fun happy hour event held at Hotel Tango to raise funds for Coburn Place. This is in connection with the Lemonade Stand fundraiser.
  • Give-Back Nights – A partnership with local restaurants and organizations to have a percentage of their sales come back to Coburn Place.
What are the volunteer opportunities like?

Monthly volunteer opportunities this year vary due to COVID. These can include setting up an apartment for a new resident, sorting donations, assisting with events and more! Other opportunities include:

  • Work at the Lemonade Stand on the Circle – Each year in the summer, Coburn Place kids host a Lemonade Stand to raise funds for back-to-school shoes and more.
  • Participate in the Race Away from Domestic Violence.
